“El Lado Salvaje” (2018) directed by Mariana Paredes Peláez tells the story of Ernestina Ramirez, world athletics champion of 100, 200 and 400 meters races. At the age of 83, with other master athletes, she shows that life is a continuous discovery and through physical training and mindset, it is possible to find a new sense of existence. These master athletes share with us a personal insight that reveals courage and passion.
